It has been approximately 15 hours since the championship meeting that lasted until midnight. After 11:00 pm the day before, Maru said, “I have always been the winner of the team, so I want to play the rest of the game with that feeling.” I don’t think it’s as good as it should be. I wish I could cover Mr. Okamoto tightly, “he laughed at his favorite junior.

In such comforting mood, No. 4 Okamoto hit three runs in the fifth inning and No. 29 won two games in a row. It carried the Yakult Ogawa fork to the left center tier and reached the platform for the third year in a row. “I hit him with a good feeling. I’m glad I hit him.” The battle for the top scorer, who accumulated 3 points, also advanced to 2 crowns with 6 points difference to 2nd place.

Hara, who seems to be lacking sleep, is also excited about the 4th two games in a row. On the eve of the nightly TV appearance, I was drenched in the lingering sound even after returning home and slept poorly. “I’m getting closer to what I’m doing. This is No. 4.” He said, “It’s about contributing to the team. It’s the difficulty and reward of No. 4” about the main gun job I also worked on.

“Well, the fact that Maru is behind is synergistic for the team. From a third party perspective, the battle between the two is also a sight to see.”

Maru went on to No. 27 solo in the first home base batting king battle, to which his family commander also paid attention, and jumped to second place only in the league. “Mr. Okamoto hit a good hit, so I was able to hit with a good image. Thank you Mr. Okamoto.” Even in such a brilliant title battle, Hara will be the highlight of the remaining eight games, saying, “We don’t have a digestive game.”[Yusuke Maeda]
